Of humans will be diagnosed with cancer at some point in their lifetime. And research has found that nearly half of all cancer deaths are caused by lifestyle, not genetics.

Full Plate Living is a nonprofit committed to reversing these troubling trends. You can play a crucial role in our fight for change and healing.

Give the gift of better health to people in your community

Science has already uncovered simple ways we can start improving our health.

The key is using that knowledge to form smarter habits.

That’s why Full Plate Living has created online and in-person programs where groups of people can learn how to live longer, more vibrant lives.

Broken into fun, interactive lessons, our group programs offer the instruction, support, and accountability people need to make meaningful changes.

We provide all of the content and materials. The only missing ingredient is someone to facilitate the sessions.

That’s where you come in!

Get certified to run a program

In this training, we’ll teach you everything you need to know to run one of our programs.

The Full Plate Living Healthy Lifestyle Program is an 8-session nutrition program perfect for hosting groups in-person or online. Anyone passionate about helping others improve their health can facilitate it.

The Shared Medical Appointment program is designed for clinician use. It’s an opportunity for providers or their staff to help several patients at once and potentially be reimbursed by insurance for the time spent.

Not sure which program is right for you? Not a problem. You’ll learn about both in the Facilitator Training.

The Full Plate Methodology

Our programs teach people how to start eating a high-fiber diet — a delicious, scientifically proven approach that can lead to more energy, lower cholesterol, better blood sugar, and weight loss.

With Full Plate Living, there are no forbidden foods, no points to count, and no guilt or shame.

Once people start eating enough fiber — from a long list of foods they already love — everything else can fall into place.

Here’s an expert discussing this course

"My clients love the Full Plate Living Healthy Lifestyle Program, and I do, too! The Program is beautifully designed to engage and empower participants. Facilitators are given all the tools, including an easy-to-follow script for each session, to be successful.

My clients love the Full Plate Approach of "Powering Up" their meals by choosing more water-fiber foods and that they get to choose their action steps each week based on their readiness to change. The Program helps participants become aware of their behaviors, values, and goals, and provides them with tools for long-term success. This is not a one-size-fits-all diet, and both my clients and I love the freedom from food rules and restrictions that make the Full Plate Approach sustainable.

The Participant Guide is an exceptional resource, and I love the activities built into each of the lessons to help participants learn and grow. It brings me joy to hear my clients, many of whom have tried multiple "diets" in the past, say they are getting healthier and losing weight by eating more food!"
